Description

10+ years experienced product manager and tech entrepreneur. I have been managing a wide variety of software, digital, and high-tech hardware products, in start-ups and very large international groups (Orange, Nokia).

As an entrepreneur, I've had a lot of fails, and some successes, but most important, I've gained operational experience that will help you to get your job done:

- Start-ups who need to reinforce their technical and/or marketing product management

- Mature companies developing new products/features/offers

Product management skills:

- Market strategy / Business case

- Product positioning (e.g Blue ocean)

- Product market fit

- Value proposition, messaging, narratives

- Go to market strategy

- Sales forces training

- User research/discovery

- Design thinking, MVP approach

- Cross functional team management: customers (always first), marketing, sales, engineering (product owner, product ops, Ux design, web developers, embedded software, electronics, mechanics, test QA, delivery), customer support

Concepts/methods I use, and books I like:

- Blue Ocean Strategy (Kim and Mauborgne): sharpen product positioning

- Jobs to be done playbook (Kalbach): user research canevas, product market fit enabler

- Profit first (Michalowicz): simple business rules to strive

- Inspired (Cagan): product management mindset to share with everyone

First and unique digital education project to learn robotics and play sports. For home or school, students learn how to make a robot, which is then used by class sports students. The fantastic opportunity to build as a team, a robot that has actually a real usage and purpose. BADDY is made with Open Source technology, enabling the development of robotics and sports everywhere, for everyone. It is fuelled by a self growing community, an ecosystem that drives its expansion. BADDY is a also a sustainable development project that has no limit but the sky: if you can repair and upgrade your robot, you then get rid of programmed obsolescence. In marketing terms, BADDY is a successful example of Blue Ocean implementation and positioning, with value maximisation at reasonable investment (See MVP/Minimum Viable Product).
